You might be wondering, “So what the heck is this Monday Poll thing anyway?”
Well, it isn’t much of a poll. It’s more just a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past four years. I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.

Mood:
Pretty good for a Monday, but I’m a little woozy from allergy meds. Yup, spring is in the air. Other than that, things are a-okay. The sun is shining, and it feels like itâ€™s going to be a great day.

What type of coverage do you like in foundation?
For pics and events, I like full coverage, but for day-to-day wear, I like light-to-medium coverage.

Do you now, or did you ever, own a charm bracelet?
Oh, yeah. I have a couple of cheesy costume ones from when I was a teen around here somewhere (I think theyâ€™re in my pink and green Caboodle, ha!).

Have you ever thrown your pet a birthday party?
No, but that’s a great idea! The only problem is, Tabs was a stray, and I donâ€™t know the date of his actual birthday. And Iâ€™m a little reluctant to take my crazy cat lady-ness to that level. Maybe in a few years, though…

Last person to whom you said, “I love you.”
El Hub, right before he left for work.

A song that reminds you of college?Are You That Somebody by Aaliyah. I listened to it all through my senior year whenever I’d get ready to go out.

Can you keep a secret?
I can, but I wouldn’t want to if it was a secret that could hurt someone else. In those cases, Iâ€™d rather just not know.

What are you wearing on your lips right now?
NARS Velvet Lip Gloss Pencil in Buenos Aires from the new Summer 2012 Collection.

Weekly goals:
Make some headway on a few writing projects, get back on track with my workouts, do a little bit of cleaning (so I donâ€™t have to do it all on the weekeend), and get to bed by 10 every night (seems like Iâ€™m always aiming for this one but falling short).

G’morning, friend! I’m just about to jump on the treadmill. Back when I was younger, I was an afternoon/early evening exerciser, but that’s changed over the past couple years. Now, if I don’t work out in the morning, it usually doesn’t happen at all.

While I go do my best impression of a hamster on a wheel, let me know how you’re doing with a quick hi in today’s Monday Poll.

1. Mood: Happy but tired. I need a vacation from my vacation!

2. What type of coverage do you like for foundation? I always think that i like light coverage, but my discolorations and massive amounts of freckles work better with a medium coverage. People say I look better in light, but I feel better with medium

8. Can you keep a secret? Yes. Well, yes, except for with the boy. My friends accept that I will usually share with him, so its not a big deal. Plus I don’t think I’ve been asked to keep a secret in like 5 years — well unless it was a good secret like one of my friends planning a wedding proposal.. that’s worth the secret!

10. Weekly goals: Keep cheerful, try to exercise or something! Drink more water, show the boy I appreciate him and keep a high work ethic! Also, paint my nails!

2. What type of coverage do you like for foundation?: Very sheer. I even find Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer to be too thick. The only one I’ve come to like as of recent is the DiorSkin Nude. Pricey, and just a smidgen too dark, even the lightest color, but it blends nicely and looks super natural.

3. Do you own a charm bracelet?: No.

6. Last person to whom you said, â€œI love you.â€ My husband

7. A song that reminds you of college? That’s tough – anything by Missy Elliot. Also, I had a roomie who had the Dixie Chicks song, “Cowboy Take Me Away” on repeat for months. Whenever I hear that song it reminds me of sitting down with our RA to hash it out!

8. Can you keep a secret? Usually. I have to admit, most of the time – I will cave and tell my husband.

9. What are you wearing on your lips? MAC Viva Glam VI

3. Do you own a charm bracelet? No, I remember I wanted one when I was in middle school, but I never actually had one.
4. Your favorite childhood games? Hide and seek, I was the best hider. I would pretend I was a spy hiding from the bad guys.
5. Have you ever thrown your pet a birthday party? No, but I do talk to them more than I ought to.
6. Last person to whom you said, â€œI love you.â€ My mom, which is great because I feel like it is probably the best answer I can put in there.

3. Do you own a charm bracelet? Yes, my MIL got me one of those Zipponi bracelets, or whatever they’re called, about 10 years ago. I liked it for about a minute. Each link was supposed to be personalized. I got about halfway around it before giving up. It just wasn’t my thing.

4. Your favorite childhood games? Jump rope, hopscotch, 2×2 basketball (girls against the boys), and a whole bunch of card games I’d play with my Grandma!

5. Have you ever thrown your pet a birthday party? No. My parents had one once for their dog, but she had been bottle fed as a puppy because her Mama died a day after the puppies were born. My Mom ordered a cake for her and told the bakery that it was for a girl named Tina who liked puppies! LOL! I do have friends who think of their cats as children and have birthday parties for them though. But I am not that kind of girl. My cat is a pet, not my child.

7. A song that reminds you of college? The Dookie album by Green Day, listened to it a lot back then!

Unsung Heroes!

Have you ever partied with Tabs?

You know what time it is. :) It's time to party with Tabs! -- the world's foremost international playboy tabby (and my feline employer). Kitty model, superstar, dreamer and all around lovable diva extraordinaire. See what he's been loving lately on his blog, partywithtabs.com, or follow his missives and adventures on Twitter.
